Two Australians Kirsty Boden, 28, from Loxton and Sara Zelenak, 21, from Brisbane, were killed in the horrific London Bridge terror attack which left eight dead and 48 injured.

The Saudi Arabia football team snub the London Bridge terror attack victim tribute.

And
as a tribute to the victims, a minute's silence was held before the
match which saw Saudi Arabia face Australia at the Adelaide Oval in a
World Cup qualifier.

But the moment was marred by the Saudi Arabia football team who refused to stand in line for the silence.

Footage shows the Australian squad line up together in solidarity along the centre circle as the silence is announced.

But as they do so the Saudi Arabia team disperse and walk into their positions on the pitch.

Silence sweeps over the stadium as the players and fans remember the dead.

Saudi
Arabia coaching staff and substitutes reportedly did not rise from the
bench for the tribute and some fans are alleged to have shouted through
the silence.

Video of the shock snub was shared widely on social media, sparking
outrage from viewers, with one Twitter user writing: "Australia paying
respects to London and Manchester, yet Saudi Arabia??"

Another commented: "Disgusting response to the one minute's silence. Crowd needs to learn meaning of the word."

But
some fans stood up for the team's behaviour with one writing: "We just
don't believe in silent moments to show sadness, you have to accept
different cultures.

"And you may have to have moments of silence every game to those who get killed daily around the world.

"My sincere condolences to all the innocents who get killed daily every day and everywhere. Muslims and non-Muslims."

“The FFA was further advised by Saudi team officials that this tradition
was not in keeping with Saudi culture and they would move to their side
of the field and respect our custom whilst taking their own positions
on the field”

"The FFA sought agreement from the Asian Football Confederation and
the Saudi national team to hold a minute’s silence in memory of those
lost in Saturday night’s terror bombings in London and in particular the
two Australian women.

“Both the AFC and the Saudi team agreed that the minute of silence could be held.

"The
FFA was further advised by Saudi team officials that this tradition was
not in keeping with Saudi culture and they would move to their side of
the field and respect our custom whilst taking their own positions on
the field."

Moments of silence are not used to show sadness and respect in Muslim Saudi culture with prayer or charity donations preferred.

The
London Bridge terror attack saw three jihadis plough a van into
pedestrians before stabbing members of the public near Borough market on
Saturday night (June 3).

The extremists were shot dead by police, leading to raids on houses in East London.

Yesterday, scores of Islamic leaders condemned the terrorists for their actions.
